![]() ![]() This taxonomic classification has since been debated, with proposals based on DNA analyses that includes a gray wolf ecotype, a gray wolf with genetic introgression from the coyote, a gray wolf/coyote hybrid, a gray wolf/ red wolf hybrid, the same species as the red wolf, or a separate species ( Canis lycaon) closely related to the red wolf. Christopher Wozencraft listed the eastern wolf as a gray wolf subspecies, which supports its earlier classification based on morphology in three studies. In the third edition of Mammal Species of the World published in 2005, the mammalogist W. ![]() It primarily preys on white-tailed deer, but may occasionally hunt moose and beavers. The nape, shoulder and tail region are a mix of black and gray, with the flanks and chest being rufous or creamy. The fur is typically of a grizzled grayish-brown color mixed with cinnamon. The eastern wolf's morphology is midway between that of the gray wolf and the coyote. There are two forms, the larger being referred to as the Great Lakes wolf, which is generally found in Minnesota, Wisconsin, the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, southeastern Manitoba and northern Ontario, and the smaller being the Algonquin wolf, which inhabits eastern Canada, specifically central and eastern Ontario and southwestern Quebec, with some overlapping and mixing of the two types in the southern portions of northeastern and northwestern Ontario. Regardless of its status, it is regarded as unique and therefore worthy of conservation with Canada citing the population in eastern Canada (also known as the "Algonquin wolf") as being the eastern wolf population subject to protection. Many studies have found the eastern wolf to be the product of ancient and recent genetic admixture between the gray wolf and the coyote, while other studies have found some or all populations of the eastern wolf, as well as coyotes, originally separated from a common ancestor with the wolf over 1 million years ago and that these populations of the eastern wolf may be the same species as or a closely related species to the red wolf ( Canis lupus rufus or Canis rufus) of the Southeastern United States. It is considered to be either a unique subspecies of grey wolf or red wolf or a separate species from both. The eastern wolf ( Canis lycaon or Canis lupus lycaon or Canis rufus lycaon) also known as the timber wolf, Algonquin wolf or eastern timber wolf, is a canine of debated taxonomy native to the Great Lakes region and southeastern Canada. Canis lupus canadensis de Blainville, 1843.Patch 1.8.0 (1): Will now correctly have its cast time reduced by Nature's Swiftness.Patch 2.0.3 (0): The shaman talents "Elemental Mastery","Shamanistic Rage" and the troll racial "Berserking" can no longer be used in "Ghost Wolf" form.Patch 2.4.0 (2): Cast time reduced to 2 seconds, down from 3./ Patch 3.0.2 (1): Ghost Wolf’s mana cost is now 13% base.While in this form, snaring effects may not bring the shaman below base normal run speed. Patch 3.2.0 (0): Can now be learned at level 16. ![]() Patch 3.3.0 (0): Can now be learned at level 16./ Patch 4.0.1 (1): Can now be used indoors.Patch 4.0.6 (): Player movement speed cannot be reduced below 100% while in Ghost Wolf if the player is or has been in an indoor environment.Use any non-gathering professions or mining.In Ghost Wolf, your standard Unarmed DPS is reduced.Some weapon buffs' effect are not active (like, , and ).Certain buffs from potions and some spells disappear.Passive abilities from weapons and items and procs are not active.If has been cast prior to becoming a wolf and the shaman keeps that weapon equipped, it will significantly increase the damage done with each bite.There are four PvP rewards which further increase the speed by +15% speed when in ghost wolf form (will not work for players above level 60).You're immune to abilities targeting Humanoids, such as Mind Control or Track Humanoids.You're vulnerable to abilities targeting Beasts such as Track Beasts, Scare Beast, or Hibernate.Ghost Wolf doesn't make you immune to Polymorph.Ghost Wolf can be spellstolen by a mage, though the mage won't take the morph effect, he/she will just dispel the buff.Ghost Wolf is treated as a magical buff and thus can be dispelled by priests, hunters, a felhunter, or another shaman.Your ability to loot, skin, and gather herbs remains usable.Become hard to see by other players (though this won't affect aggressive mobs).Attack with a bite attack damage and attack speed depend on what weapon the shaman has equipped.Move 30% faster (The Enchant Boot - Minor Speed enchant has no effect on Ghost Wolf speed).
